actually follows through with his campaign promises

Don't count on it. Not for any bad reason, just that things are harder to implement than campaign promises, whether it's city council in the way or just practicality.

I'm just saying he can be a success without implementing all of his campaign ideas.

    If he legitimately tries, that is enough for me.

    I can almost guarantee you that both corporations and the right wing will try to stop or reverse anything he does. If he shows that the Republicans oppose these extremely popular initiatives, it might cause a massive swing of voters, who believed trump's campaign promises, to shift over to the left.
